The rainbow jersey is elusive at the best of times, but to secure the coveted stripes upon just returning from a season-long injury is borderline miraculous. Of course it helps to have a fast bike, and if there is one thing that Commencal has shown us over the past couple of years it's that they know how to build race-winning machines. Myriam rode to Worlds glory aboard this high-pivot 29er with a full SRAM/RockShox build. Rolling stock was provided by ENVE and Schwalbe, and the whole thing is so speedy that it needs 220mm rotors to slow down.
